I blog every month about the books I add to my reading stack, but I’ve never thought about sharing the new homeschooling-related titles I add. This month’s post includes about three month’s worth of new books.
National Parks: A Kid’s Guide to America’s Parks, Monuments and Landmarks
I saw this one on my friend Sarah’s Instagram, and immediately wanted it. I love love love the National Parks and a fun title like this looked like one we would all enjoy.
Castle by David Macaulay
We’re in the middle of learning about the era of European castles in history, so I couldn’t resist when I found this title on a great deal.
Legends & Leagues South Storybook (& Workbook)
Wanted to try this as it looked like a fun approach to geography.
Cabin on Trouble Creek by Jean Van Leeuwen
This title appears on a lot of recommended fiction lists, so I grabbed it on sale.
Who Was Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart by Yona Zeldis McDonough
Another sale title (so hard to resist titles when they’re super inexpensive!), because I love having additional easier readers on hand to give to my kids when I need something to keep them busy.
Mirette on the High Wire by Emily Arnold McCully
Another one where I couldn’t resist the screaming deal.
It’s beyond where my kids are right now, but I’m hoping they get some use out of it. They’ve loved the other Usborne science titles they’ve used.
The Way Things Work Now by David Macaulay
Couldn’t resist this on sale either, and I think they are going to LOVE it when I finally pull it off the shelf.
Looks like the sort of book we all enjoy, and it’s SO HARD for me to resist Bible reference books that I think my kids will like.
Dear Deer: A Book of Homophones by Gene Barretta
Very cute, but I’d only say get it if you find an amazing deal like I did (love damaged book sales when the “damage” ends up being super minor).
Life Skills for Kids: Equipping Your Child for the Real World by Christine Field
I maybe should have listed this in my usual New on the Stack post, because it is for me. Except it is homeschooling-related so I’m keeping it here. I’m not sure how useful this will be, but I’m giving it a try.
No, it’s not a book, but it is for school. So far my son really likes this, and I’m enjoying it as well (I’ve never played chess before, so we’re both learning).
